Needless to say I have a lot of friend's discussions that I need to go through; may take awhile but rest assured they will be viewed, etc.
As some of you already know my son, CJ is in the Special Olympics. His first competition was last year, bowling, which he didn't fare too well in but he still had a great deal of fun and that's all that really matters, is it not?Then, on January 20, 2007 he competed in the regional - individual basketball skills competition here in Illinois. He won a Gold Medal; we were so proud of him and he was so happy.
The win qualified him to move on with other Gold Medalists to compete in State. We went to Illinois State University on Saturday, March 17, 2007 (St. Patrick's Day) and he participated once again; we had practiced a few times before going.
The first time he won the gold he couldn't really dribble that well or hit ball off wall and let it bounce once before catching it but he made a lot of free throws. At State he dribbled across the court twice without missing a beat and... | |
| | Illinois state trooper charged..Two teen sisters killed | | An Illinois state trooper has been charged with two counts of reckless homicide and two counts of aggravated reckless driving for losing control of his police cruiser and crashing head-on into another car, resulting in the fiery deaths of two teenage sisters from Collinsville.the trooper, was driving too fast and was engaged in "other activities" at the time of the crash on Nov. 23 of last year, according to a four-count grand jury indictment issued Friday.

| | Cowboys hope to keep `Romo-mentum' going against Buccaneers | | When NFL and network scheduling mavens decided to have Tampa Bay play Dallas on Thanksgiving, they must have envisioned hyping the names Simms and Bledsoe and their shared connection, Cowboys coach Bill Parcells. Well, the game is here, and the quarterbacks aren't. Chris Simms (son of Phil, the MVP of Parcells' first Super Bowl team) is hurt. Drew Bledsoe (the starting quarterback in Parcells' most recent Super Bowl) is benched. Instead, the national television audience will watch a battle between Bruce Gradkowski and Tony Romo.

In search of another promotional gimmick, how does Joey Galloway returning to Texas Stadium for the first time since being traded for Keyshawn Johnson grab you? Will you settle for Jon Gruden trying to spruce up his resume in case Jerry Jones is hiring this offseason? Although Gruden insists his club has loftier goals than trying to be a spoiler -- "We don't think of ourselves as a bunch of deadbeats," he said -- the best story line is the Buccaneers (3-7) trying to slow the "Romo-mentum" that's building around the Cowboys (6-4). Sparked by the new quarterback, Dallas has won two in a row and three of four.... | |

| | Did you know? | | Just how secretive Obama is about his past? I knew about a couple of things but didn't realize just how much he was hiding. What is with this (p)resident in the Oval Office? What on earth is he hiding?
As it stands, Obama is the only president in history whose birthplace is unknown to the public – a fact that would be stated on the actual birth certificate. Interestingly, his family has mentioned two different hospitals in Hawaii as the place of birth. Obama’s refusal to release his birth certificate does mean that Obama remains one of America’s most mysterious and opaque presidents ever.
Obama, for example, has not released many other documents regarding his public and private life.
Many of these documents were sought by reporters, who easily acquiesced when Obama said he would not release them – though most presidential candidates release them as a perfunctory matter. Among the key documents that Obama continues to shield from the public:
• Obama released just one brief document detailing his personal health. McCain, on the other hand, released what he said was his complete medical file, totaling more than 1,500 pages.
• Obama refused to offer his official... | |
